Four Orioles defenders will win Gold Glove awards at their positions

In 2012, catcher Matt Wieters, shortstop J.J. Hardy and center fielder Adam Jones all won Gold Glove awards. It was the first time since 1998 that three Orioles were honored in the same season. They could have more this season. Jones has struggled, but Wieters (above) and Hardy have been strong defensively, as has third baseman Manny Machado. Outfielders Nate McLouth and Nick Markakis will also be candidates.
